Grandstand is a CAMRAs Champion Bitter of London! (15/3/18)

This week Grandstand won the bitter category at London Drinker in the London area of the Champion Beer of Britain. It’s nice to see such a lovely session ale continually appreciated and goes to show that it shouldn’t just be saved for rugby times!

London Beer City Festival Collaboration (20/07/17)

As part of the festival there is a ‘Battle of the Beer Shops’ competition going on, so we’ve teamed up the the wonderful guys at Micro Beers, in East Sheen, to design and brew a New England IPA. Whilst the West Coast IPAs are really high on bitterness, with East Coast style it’s all about the aroma, so this brew has no bittering hops, but a whopping 55Kg of aroma hops – in just half a brew! Look out for it in August across London.

Grandstand wins at SIBA SE (13/7/17)

Been a while since edited this page, so thought better add some news! And Grandstand has been recognised as the great session bitter it is, winning silver in the SIBA South East 2017 standard bitters category.

Gothick Dark is a winner! (4/3/16)

Yesterday Gothick Dark won Bronze in the ‘Champion Beer of Britain’ Old Ale and Milds Category for London and the South East. A great result for this glorious strong mild, aginst some very stiff competition.

Collaboration with Redemption Brewery

Redemption is a great brewery from North London that we have brewed a new beer with. It’s a one off and uses an experimental hop called Eureka. A 5% amber beer this new hop should be one to look out for in future years, but remember you saw it here first!

Bottles now in M&S

As well as being in the likes of Oddbins, Waitrose and Wholefoods, you can now get two of our beers in M&S stores across London – so if you want a Sundancer or Grandstand, you now know where to go!

Rugby on the Big Screen

We’re installing a big screen and projector, so now you can watch the games in the brewery with the freshest of beer and hot food. We’ll be screening on days when there is an England home game and showing both the games on that day, so bring your mates and come and get a full days rugby with us.

Spreading across the Channel

Last week our brewing team headed across to France to brew a porter with Page 24 (Brasserie St Germain), which will be sold in bottles in France. The return trip has just occurred and a French Spring ale has been brewed which will be available from the end of January.

Bottles now in Waitrose Egham

A brand new Waitrose is opening in Egham next week and, quite rightly, they’ll be stocking Naked Ladies and Grandstand in bottles. If you’re in the neighbourhood time to stock up.

Meet us in Druid’s Head, Kingston

We’ll be in the Druid’s Head, Kingston, on Thursday 5th Dec for a meet the brewer as part of their beer festival. As well as meeting us it’s the only pub in Kingston that has a set of our Small batch Stout, so chance to taste there!

Another Three wins!!

Tusk, our recently launched keg IPA has already won its first award. This glorious, dry hopped IPA won Bronze at this years inaugural SIBA Keg competition for South of England. IT won it in the hotly contested Premium bitters, Pale and Golden Ales category.

We also won silver at the CAMRA Norwich festival with Strange Brew in the Best Bitters category. Great to see Twickenham beers being appreciated around the country.

Finally, we won beer of the festival, with Grandstand, at the Ales-ford Festival, in Alresford, Hants

Winning streak continues!

This time Twickenham Fine Ales has been recognised as a business – winning the Small Business of the Year, at the Richmond Business Awards.

The judges praised our branding, growth and community involvement – so come on down and join us at our rugby bar and help us makes Twickenham famous for both beer and rugby.

Another winner – Mosaic Pale

We’ve just found out the Mosaic Pale, our new low abv, high hopped, beer won silver at the Ealing Beer festival. People were amazed at the amount much flavour was packed into the beer and how it tasted in the 4%s, even though it is only 3.2%ABV.

Look out for it again next summer…

Twickenham in keg

Been a long time coming, but you can now get a keg beer from Twickenham – and what a beer it is! Aroma hopped with Ahtanum and Chinook – with an extra dry hopping for good measure to cut through the lower serving temperature. If you are in the area the first place to stock is the White Swan in Twickenham.

Decade – Our Anniversary Beer

If you can’t make it to the party you can still celebrate with a pint of Decade, our new IPA brewed specially for our 10th Anniversary.

It’s a 5% IPA, brewed to be left with a little residual sugar gives an initial slightly sweet taste with a clean, crisp finish. Hopped with Chinook and Ahtanum gives plenty of aroma and a solid hoppy finish. Enjoy!

10th Anniversary

From 12-7pm you can come and try our full range of beers, see round the brewery, listen to live music and have a bite to eat too. Tickets are £10, which includes 3 pints and a glass and can be purchased by emailing info@twickenham-fine-ales.co.uk or calling 020 8241 1825.

Look forward to seeing you all soon.

Bar times now available

Now the fixtures are announced we know when the bar will be open for before rugby matches. Have a look at the Bar page on this site and do keep checking back in case fixtures get changed.

Running the bar at Twickenham Green Fair

Get down to Twickenham Green on Sunday 6th July and, as well as all the great activities on offer, you’ll be able to get hold of some fine beer at the beer tent too. Look forward to seeing you there.

Sold Out!!

Smiler’s Ale, this month’s special brew, sold out to pubs in a record 8 days this month! It should be going on pumps from now, so keep an eye out across London for this fine amber ale.

Now in…

Grandstand is now available in bottles. Available in the brewery shop, expect to see it in more retail outlets soon.

Another win!

Nooksack – our collaboration brew with Kissingate Brewery, of Sussex, has been announced as beer of the Festival for CAMRA Sussex Beer and Cider Festival. This well hop fest was hopped with Mosaic and Citra and then dry hopped with the ‘7 Cs’ the seven hops from Washington State that start with the letter C.

Sold out now, so look out to see if any repeats may happen later in the year…

Naked Ladies is a Winner! (08/02/14)

This week Naked Ladies won Silver in CAMRA’s London and South East Champion Beer of Britain Awards, for the Golden Ales category! A fantastic results, given the level of competition in the category these days.

And don’t forget it’s available in bottles now too.

Just in – Sundancer in Bottles! (22/1/14)

New for 2014 is our latest bottled beer.

As with Naked Ladies, we have bottled the beer using a sterile filtration process. We believe this is the best way of keeping the hop flavour of the beer whilst still have the benefit of no sediment – so it’s easy to pour and a great beer every time!
